Why see The Rocky Horror Picture Show?
Great Scott!
Gird your loins and grab your fishnets, because The Rocky Horror Picture Show is celebrating 50 years of Antici.....pation! A true cult classic, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the story of Brad and Janet, two recently engaged college kids who head off on a road trip to bring the happy news to their former professor. But when they get a flat tire outside of the enigmatic Dr Frank-n-Furter's gothic castle, it looks like this squeaky clean couple are in for a night they'll never forget!
It's Just A Jump To The Left
First running all the way back in 1973, Rocky Horror is an affectionate parody of Sci-Fi and horror B movies of the 1950s, featuring hilarious and catchy songs such as the dance-tastic 'Time Warp', 'Sweet Transvestite' and many more. Premiering at the Royal Court Theatre (Upstairs) the original London run lasted seven years and spawned numerous worldwide productions and the beloved movie starring Tim Curry, Patricia Quinn, Susan Sarandon and Meatloaf alongside creator Richard O'Brien himself.
